Musik Spegeln Special: Benny Andersson = Music Mirror Special: Benny Andersson

A TV documentary which flits between footage of several separate interviews with Benny and Susanne Cederberg to celebrate his 50th Birthday. He performed a fantastic hits medley on the piano which is quite beautiful as well as Vi öppna alla grindar from Kristina från Duvemåla.  Clips of his time in The Hep Stars were shown (Wedding, Sunny Girl, No Response and Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On) as well as Klinga Mina Klockor; Benny with Orsa Spelemän from Jacobs Stege; Chess on Broadway (footage from Rapport (which they have labelled as being from Aktuellt)); Chess in Concert and finally, ABBA with Money, Money, Money from ABBA-dabba-dooo!! and the Dancing Queen PROMO being shown.  Benny's composition Machopolska is featured over footaqge of Benny in his boat.

Benny was also shown at leisure with his horse, driving in Stockholm, at the helm of his boat and walking his dog, Max.

Thanks to Jason for the detailed rundown of the show's contents:

1. The first song performed by Benny and Orsa Spelmän, about 1 minute in, was something the show titles Zornpolska and they credit it to L Göras / B Andersson. If this was not re-titled as something else later (can anyone confirm?) then it is a unique song that has not been released on recording to my knowledge. It is only a snippet from a previous performance, however.
2. Also, there were two different versions of Benny playing Vi öppnar alla grindar on the piano. The first is about 13 minutes into the show and slightly shorter, while the second is over the closing credits, a little longer, and with a different ending. Both versions are beautiful.
3. About 17 minutes in, Benny demonstrates how he arranges his songs by building up Kom till mig alla from Kristina från Duvemåla on his synthesizer, which then goes into footage from the stage show. The show titles the song Annas död instead of Kom till mig alla as it is listed on the CD.
4. About 25 minutes in, Benny and Orsa Spelmän are shown playing Helgdagskväll i Timmerkojan which they have not recorded elsewhere (to my knowledge). It is a Dan Andersson song that the Hootenanny Singers recorded for their Dan Andersson på vårt sätt album from 1973.
5. About 33 minutes in is shown the cast of Kristina från Duvemåla along with Björn and Benny performing Överheten live on stage in what appears to be the encore from the Malmö opening.  
6. About 45 minutes in, Benny plays a song on the piano that has been going around fan circles with the title Happy Days (since it seems similar to Happy Days Are Here Again), but according to the show the actual title is Börja dagen med en schlager (Begin the day with a schlager) which is credited to S Goon.

The medley of Benny's compositions is about 50 minutes in.
